Added application flags to translate between touch and mouse events.

The current way we do it of having the platform or touch plugin send
both mouse and touch events is not ideal. There's no good way to write
an application that works sanely both on a touch-only device and on a
desktop except by restricting yourself to only handling mouse events. If
you try to handle touch events you don't get any events at all on
desktop, and if you try to handle both, you end up getting duplicate
events on touch devices.

Instead, we should get rid of the code in the plugins that automatically
sends mouse events translated from touch events. This change enables
that by making the behaviour fully configurable in QtGui.

Two new application attributes are added to explicitly say whether
unhandled touch events should be sent as synthesized mouse events and
vice versa, and no duplicates are automatically sent as the current
situation. Synthesized mouse events are enabled by default.

We also get rid of the QTouchEvent::TouchPoint::Primary flag, which
was only used to signal that the windowing system automatically
generated mouse events for that touch point. Now we only generate mouse
events from the first touch point in the list.
